Ethan Quinn vs Marcos Giron Head-to-Head, Preview, Stats & Pick:
Head To Head First Meeting.
In the second round of the Delray Beach Open, we witnessed an intriguing matchup between Ethan Quinn and Marcos Giron. This was the first meeting between the two American players, adding an element of unpredictability to the match.
At just 20 years old, Ethan Quinn already has an impressive resume. He started the 2025 season ranked No. 202, but quickly climbed the rankings and achieved a career-high position of No. 150 in February. Quinn’s strong performance in the Dallas tournament, where he reached the second round as a qualifier, helped him break into the top 200. Despite losing to the formidable No. 9 seed, Tommy Paul, Quinn showed great promise.
Quinn’s journey in professional tennis began in 2023 when he made his ATP Tour debut at the Newport tournament. As a wildcard ranked No. 434, he defeated Mukund and earned his first ATP Tour win. The following year, Quinn made waves again in Newport, this time defeating Polmans in the first round. These victories served as a testament to his growing potential.
In the Challenger circuit, Quinn holds a slightly above .500 record of 39-38. He reached the finals twice but unfortunately fell short on both occasions. However, his breakthrough came in 2024 when he clinched his first title at the Champaign tournament without losing a single set. This marked a significant milestone in Quinn’s career, highlighting his ability to perform at a high level.
Not only has Quinn excelled on the professional circuit, but he also made a name for himself during his college years. In 2023, he became the fifth player from the University of Georgia to win the NCAA singles national crown, a feat that hadn’t been accomplished since 2002. Quinn’s victory came after a thrilling match against Michigan’s Ondrej Styler, where he fought back from the brink of defeat, saving four match points.
His stellar performances in college earned him recognition as a 2023 ITA All-American in both singles and doubles. Quinn finished the season ranked No. 2 in singles and No. 3 in doubles, a testament to his versatility and skill on the court. His success continued into the 2022 US Open, where he received a wildcard entry into the qualifying draw and managed to reach the main draw in doubles. These achievements showcased his potential on the biggest stage.
However, Quinn’s journey in this tournament took an unexpected turn. He suffered a loss in the second round of qualifying to Z. Svajda. Luckily for him, he entered the main draw as a lucky loser due to Tommy Paul’s withdrawal with a left shoulder injury. In the first round, Quinn faced off against his countryman, Boyer, and emerged victorious. Now, he sets his sights on his first ATP Tour quarterfinal and a chance to secure his first win against a top 50 opponent, a feat he has yet to achieve in his career.
As for Marcos Giron, the 31-year-old has already experienced success on the professional circuit. He is currently ranked No. 49 in the world, with his highest career ranking being No. 37, achieved in August 2024. Giron is one of three former UCLA Bruins to break into the top 50 during the 2022 season, joining the ranks of Cressy and McDonald. His impressive victories helped him reach this career milestone.
In 2022, Giron reached his first ATP Tour final at the age of 29, and it took place in his home state of California at the San Diego tournament. This achievement was a significant milestone for him and showcased his ability to compete at the highest level. Throughout his career, Giron has qualified for an impressive 11 ATP Masters 1000 events, including the 2023 Toronto tournament. His biggest win came against the 6th seed, Rune, in the second round.
The Grand Slam stage has also seen Giron’s prowess. He reached the third round of the 2021 Roland Garros after a remarkable comeback from being down 6-2, 6-4, 5-1 and saving three match points against Dimitrov in the first round. Giron replicated this feat at the 2023 Roland Garros and the 2025 Australian Open, proving his ability to perform under pressure.
Giron’s journey to success was not without challenges. He had to overcome right hip surgery in 2015 and left hip surgery in 2016. Despite these setbacks, he managed to break into the top 100 in 2020 and has continued to thrive ever since.
This match is pivotal for Giron, as he enters the tournament as the fifth seed. In his previous two occasions as a top 5 seed, he managed to reach the final, once in San Diego as the No. 3 seed and again in Newport as the No. 2 seed, where he clinched the title. Giron now aims to secure his 23rd ATP Tour quarterfinal and his first on US soil since his victory in Newport. He has a chance to make it three consecutive quarterfinal appearances in Delray Beach, following his previous achievements in 2023 and 2024.
This clash between Ethan Quinn and Marcos Giron promises to be a thrilling encounter. Both players are eager to make their mark on the tournament, with Quinn aiming to continue his rise up the rankings and Giron looking to add to his already impressive resume. As the battle unfolds on the tennis court, it remains to be seen who will emerge victorious and progress further in the Delray Beach Open.
